Lesions of “uncertain malignant potential” in the breast (B3) identified with mammography screening
Background Core needle biopsy (CNB) is a standard diagnostic procedure in the setting of breast cancer screening. However, CNB may result in the borderline diagnoses of lesion of uncertain malignant potential (B3). The aim of this study was to access the

Mammography screening reduces rates of advanced and fatal breast cancers: Results in 549,091 women
It is of paramount importance to evaluate the impact of participation in organized mammography service screening independently from changes in breast cancer treatment.

Twenty five year follow-up for breast cancer incidence and mortality of the Canadian national breast screening study: randomised screening trial [PDF]
Annual mammography in women aged 40-59 does not reduce mortality from breast cancer beyond that of physical examination or usual care when adjuvant therapy for breast cancer is freely available.

Rayleigh imaging in spectral mammography [PDF]
Spectral imaging is the acquisition of multiple images of an object at different energy spectra. In mammography, dual-energy imaging (spectral imaging with two energy levels) has been investigated for several applications, in particular material decomposition, which allows for quantitative analysis of breast composition and quantitative contrast ...

Sharing Generative Models Instead of Private Data: A Simulation Study on Mammography Patch Classification [PDF]
Early detection of breast cancer in mammography screening via deep-learning based computer-aided detection systems shows promising potential in improving the curability and mortality rates of breast cancer. However, many clinical centres are restricted in the amount and heterogeneity of available data to train such models to (i) achieve promising ...
